Are you excited about getting our state to pass the Article V Convention of States resolution and wondering how you can help? \\
\\
Here's something you can do. Write a letter to the editor of your local paper. It only takes a few minutes, and it's a great way to spread the word about the last, best chance to preserve liberty in America. \\
\\
Need a little help? We have sample letters to editors below that you can use or take inspiration from to write a letter of your own.\\
\\
Here are a few tips for crafting the perfect letter:

> **A letter to the editor doesn’t make news—it comments on news.** Craft your letter around a current event and try to write your letter as a response to that. A recent example of abuse by the federal government is always a good topic. \\
> \\
> **Keep your letter concise.** Often, letters to the editor must be within a certain word count. The exact requirements can be found in a statement on the Letter to the Editor section of the paper.
> 
> **End with a Call to Action.** Encourage readers to visit www.conventionofstates.com for more information.
> 
> **Papers want letters from local writers.** Include your name and hometown in your email submission.\\
> \\
> **Send your letter to the appropriate address.** Newspapers often have a specific email address they want folks to send their letters. This will be posted on their website or at the end of the Letters to the Editor section.\\
> \\
> **Was your letter published?** Great! We'd love to see it! Send us a link at info@conventionofstates.com. **If it wasn't**, send it to a different paper or try sending it again.

Here are examples for you to read through and use what you can for your own letter to the editor. Or you can submit each of these over several weeks as a series of letters.
